Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have developed a new manufacturing technique that could help ...

Molecules are among the smallest building blocks available for making next-generation devices. Their unique, customizable properties enable promising applications in emerging computing, sensing, ...

Much of the world we see around us is made up of complicated molecules. If you go to the store, virtually everything you see—every bottle of nail polish, every bag of lawn fertilizer, and every ...

In cheminformatics, where machine learning is transforming our understanding of how molecular properties are predicted and explained, a critical challenge has long remained: making these powerful but ...

A new molecule-making machine could do for chemistry what 3-D printing did for engineering: Make it fast, flexible and accessible to anyone. Chemists at the University of Illinois, led by chemistry ...

Florida State University chemists have synthesized new molecules derived from bacteria found in a Pacific Ocean sea sponge, a breakthrough for the future of drug development, particularly for rare ...

A team at EPFL and the University of Arizona has discovered that making molecules bigger and more flexible can actually extend the life of quantum charge flow, a finding that could help shape the ...

A new, two-step strategy for making substituted piperidines offers chemists a more efficient way to make these biologically relevant molecules. The method, which leverages enzymatic oxidation and ...

For the first time, researchers have developed a way to create chilled molecules containing the radioactive element radium.

The molecules were deemed too unstable to make, but experiments show they can be ‘captured’ in certain reactions to yield useful products. For the first time, chemists have made a class of molecules ...

“Around 50 percent of approved drugs are either natural products or derivatives of natural products,” said Zackary Firestone, a fourth-year doctoral student in FSU’s Department of Chemistry and ...
